Electronic Fuel Pump

[colyank]

Recently I have gone through two mechanical fuel pumps on my 1972 Chevy c10 pickup where all of the sudden they just quit pumping gas with little to no miles or usage out of them. My friend suggested I go to an electronic fuel pump, either as a helper for the mechanical or to bypass it altogether. In doing research, it seems only issue with keeping the mechanical is if the diaphragm fails and it floods the crankcase. It seems like many people just block off the mechanical and go with electronic pump. Does anyone have suggestions on either of those, and also suggestions on a pump. I would be looking for something that will last and no leave me on the side of the road again. Thanks
